Na addrtta—A. S. BURLEM>.V, P»tiiia«t«r General. Published .weekly at Cincinnati. O. Subscription, $3.00 per year. Entered as second-class mail matter, June 4, 1897, at Post Office, Cincinnati, under act of March 3, 1879. mv THE DOMINANT NOTE IN THEAmCAL JOURNALISM THIS ISSUE CONTAINS 26 PER CENT ADVERTISING AND 74 PER CENT READING MATTER I ‘‘The American People are with you.” —General Pershing to our soldiers. And General Pershing was right. The American People ARE “WITH” the boys over there. Their unanimity, solidarity, concurrence and agreement are wonderful. All classes have done nobly in the Fourth Liberty Loan drive, but one of them, showfolk, has been extra fine. Showfolk—and by showfolk we mean not only the actors, actresses, managers and agents, but the Chautauqua talent, the professional entertainers of all sorts, the platform speakers, and last but not least, THE SPLENDID FOUR-MINUTE MEN, who have labored valiantly in our movies and theaters side by side with the people thereof for so long now that they also belong— are 100% loyal. They have not only home the burdens of war as philosophically, accepted the draft as cheer¬ fully, paid their taxes as willingly, lent of their means to the government as eagerly and cut down on the use of food as uncomplainingly as have other classes, but they have given of their time and services so bountifully, so exuberantly and so lavishly that they have completely distanced all emulators. When the story is writ and the records of those who loved their native land made up they will find as did Abou-ben-Adhem that their name leads all the list.
